Some people want that, though, so we're always going to have suburban areas. jeffster is right in saying that not all people don't want to live in urban areas in a tiny apartment. I have spent most of my life growing up in Europe and there are tons of people there who would love to have a detached home like so many people over here have. It's pretty natural to want your own independent home with your own tiny plot of land to use, so much so that in countries like Russia it's common to own a dacha in addition to an apartment in the city. There's no need to get passive aggressive over it. The city has spent the last two decades trying to densify and urbanize, but we can't exactly force people to accept that nor expect it to happen in an instant. There needs to be a balance and we're at least trying to work towards it.
